Journal ArticleDOI

Oxyradicals and DNA damage

TL;DR: The levels of oxidative DNA damage reported in many human tissues or in animal models of carcinogenesis exceed the levels of lesions induced by exposure to exogenous carcinogenic compounds, and it seems likely that oxidativeDNA damage is important in the etiology of many human cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Review of the Antioxidant Mechanisms of Polyphenol Compounds Related to Iron Binding

TL;DR: In this review, primary attention is given to the antioxidant (and prooxidant) activity of polyphenols arising from their interactions with iron both in vitro and in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative Decay of DNA

TL;DR: A proliferation of techniques has resulted in the confirmation of the early hypotheses and also delivered some surprises in the study of DNA oxidation, and some of the most interesting recent results are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of DNA damage, repair, and mutagenesis.

TL;DR: This introductory review will delineate mechanisms of DNA damage and the counteracting repair/tolerance pathways to provide insights into the molecular basis of genotoxicity in cells that lays the foundation for subsequent articles in this issue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endogenous DNA damage in humans: a review of quantitative data

TL;DR: A list of endogenous DNA-damaging agents, processes and DNA adduct levels is presented and the respective roles of endogenous versus exogenous DNA damage in carcinogenesis are discussed.

The Metabolic and Molecular Bases of Inherited Disease

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a list of disorders of MITOCHONDRIAL FUNCTION, including the following: DISORDERS OF MIOCHONDRIC FERTILITY XIX, XVI, XIX.

Instability and decay of the primary structure of DNA

TL;DR: The spontaneous decay of DNA is likely to be a major factor in mutagenesis, carcinogenesis and ageing, and also sets limits for the recovery of DNA fragments from fossils.
Journal ArticleDOI

Superoxide Radical and Superoxide Dismutases

TL;DR: O2- oxidizes the [4Fe-4S] clusters of dehydratases, such as aconitase, causing-inactivation and release of Fe(II), which may then reduce H2O2 to OH- +OH..
